"H-Huh?" I was starled, kumurap ako at nakitang seryoso ang kanyang mukha habang nakababa ang tingin sa akin.

"Sorry," He sighed. "Tara na, alis na tayo."

Something tugged inside my chest but I managed to shake my head and push his hand softly away from me.

"U-Uh, no." I said, shaking my head. "Magpapahinga nalang ako."

"No," Umiling sya at pilit hinanap ang mata ko. "I know that was rude of me, sorry if--"

"Hindi na," Bulong ko at nag-iwas ng tingin. "Ayos lang talaga ako, Wave. Wala kang kasalanan." I smiled a little. "Masakit lang talaga ang tuhod ko."

I saw how his forehead creased, nakita kong napasulyap sya sa may paahan ko bago bumaling sa bangka kung saan gulat na nakatingin sa aming dalawa ang mga tao.

"I won't come today, Just." Wave suddenly said. I bit my lip, sabay-sabay namang nagsinghapan ang mga tao sa bangka roon sa sinabi nya.

"Why, Wave?" Gulat na sabi ng kanyang manager. "Hindi pwedeng hindi ka kasama."

"Y-You should come," Napabaling sa akin si Wave bago muling tumingin sa pwesto ng bangka.

"She has a wound, gagamutin ko lang." Aniya.

I saw how Edmund's mouth parted, salubong ang kilay at masama ang tinging iginawad sa akin ni Kierra roon.

Mukhang naguluhan si Justin doon at bumaba ng bangka bago kami lapitan.

"Hindi pa ba magaling ang sugat mo, Miss?" Ani Justin na sumulyap sa akin.

"K-Kaya ko naman," Sagot ko at binalingan si Wave. "Sige na, sumama ka na."

"Kaya nya naman pala, Wave--"

"Tinatamad akong umalis, kayo nalang." He answered, his forehead creased. Sinuklay nya ang kanyang buhok gamit ang kanyang daliri at nakita ko ang pag-igting ng panga.

"Kung ganun, sinong sasamahan ko 'dun? Edi hindi nalang ako sasama rin, dito nalang ako sa inyo--"

"No." He said quickly but sharply.

"Huh?" Justin asked.

"I can handle it, you go and enjoy, ako na ang sasama kay Zirena." He said. My heart raced, lumunok ako at kumuyom ang kamay ko.

He calls me by my name!

"Hindi--"

"Just fucking go, Just!" May riing sabi nito sa lalaki. I saw how Justin's brows lifted in amusement, napalingon sa akin ang lalaki at kumurap lang ako roon.

"Hindi, ako na lang din ang gagamot-"

"You go away, fucker!" He hissed, quite annoyed.

"Alright, alright!" He raised his hand and smiled michievously. "Daming sinasabi, sabihin mo nalang na gustong mong solohin--"

"Don't make me curse you again!" He said sharply and Justin laughed, staring at me for awhile before shaking his head.

"Patawarin mo na," He said.

"Huh?" Gulat kong sabi.

"Baka hindi makatulog kapag di kayo nagbati-"

"Tangina mo!" My eyes widen when I heard Wave cursed in Tagalog, his voice is deep and harsh, sending me chills.

Oh, that was hot!

"Oo na," Halakhak ni Justin at umatras. He raised his hand, surrendering as he sighed and smirked. "Take care of the woman, Wave, h'wag kang gumawa ng ikakapahamak mo."
